Pros & Cons

Metricool

Pros

  • Generous free plan usable indefinitely
  • Combines social scheduling with web and Google Business Profile analytics
  • Pricing is competitive compared to Hootsuite and Sprout Social
  • Strong feature set for agencies, including white-labeling
  • Supports a wide range of networks including TikTok and Threads

Cons

  • Free plan limited to one profile per network
  • Advanced reporting and API access require higher-tier plans
  • Interface can feel dense for first-time users given the breadth of features
  • Custom/agency plan pricing is not publicly listed
  • Some advanced integrations (like Zapier) are gated behind the Advanced tier

Loomly

Pros

  • Approval workflows are more robust than most competitors at similar price points
  • Published, transparent pricing tiers rather than sales-only enterprise quotes
  • Unlimited users included on every tier, which suits agencies and larger teams
  • AI-assisted ideation and brand guideline checks reduce manual content review
  • Backed by Bending Spoons, giving the product continued investment after acquisition

Cons

  • Pricing scales quickly with account count, making higher tiers expensive for large brands
  • No perpetual free plan, only a 7-day free trial
  • Some advanced analytics and integrations are reserved for higher tiers
  • Newer under Bending Spoons ownership, so long-term roadmap direction is still settling
  • Smaller ecosystem of native integrations compared with larger competitors like Hootsuite
